Too many dependencies are present after upgrading to Tycho 4.0.5.
After upgrading to Tycho 4.0.5 from 4.0.1 too many dependencies are returned, which are not in our product. See the newly added dependencies here: https://gitlab.eclipse.org/eclipse/escet/escet/-/merge_requests/788/diffs#cf3483dc93ae7e3c7a54201d846111014cbf504d and our discussion here: https://gitlab.eclipse.org/eclipse/escet/escet/-/merge_requests/788#note_1705986.
The Maven plugin uses the standard Maven resolution mechanism. We're entirely at the mercy of how Eclipse Tycho interacts with the Maven reactor.
Are you invoking the tool with or without the -Dtycho.target.eager=true option?
I get a much longer list of dependencies when I turn the tycho.target.eager on.
$ mvn dependency:tree -Dtycho.target.eager=false | grep -Poh "(?<=\+\-)[^:]+:[^:]+:[^:\s]+" | grep -v org\.eclipse | sort | uniq | wc -l
24
$ mvn dependency:tree -Dtycho.target.eager=true | grep -Poh "(?<=\+\-)[^:]+:[^:]+:[^:\s]+" | grep -v org\.eclipse | sort | uniq | wc -l

In my experience with Tycho-based builds, the tycho.target.eager=true option produces the more correct results. I don't recall offhand whether or not I've noticed source bundles (per #317) in the results in other cases.
Yes, we do use the -Dtycho.target.eager=true option, after #259. Without, we get (after filtering) 28 dependencies, and with eager=true we get 742.
